Sorrow ? I ask what is that ?

Prompt came the reply"Delve into your past"

'Did you like it when your pet struggled and died?

That is SORROW ! defined far and wide

If Death be the greatest sorrow

What'll happen if I die tomorrow?

Few may grieve..some may be sad

He spent all he had.. thats too bad !

My loved ones have left me for good

A glittering ,amazing,golden childhood

Reborn on this wondrous Earth

Beauty and pleasure mingled with mirth

Wrinkles arrived--pasted on my youth

Words-ever young..still come from my mouth

My prayer each day is to be reborn again

To see the silver moon wax and wane

Alive and happy today with bounce and glitter

Let me not waste time in SORROW let me not fritter

Live my last two decades with paint and wine

Painting the love-birds on future grape vine
